Gov. Scott Walker's campaign announced today he raised more than $13 million during the most recent reporting period pushing his overall haul to fend off a recall attempt at $25 million.

Walker's campaign said in a release he finished the pre-primary period, which covers through April 23, with $4.8 million in recall and general campaign funds.

Walker's campaign said he received 125,926 donations during the period with 96,292 of those $50 or less, representing 76.4 perecnt of the overall contributions.

Walker's fundraising overshadows what Dem rivals Tom Barrett and Kathleen Falk said they raised during the period. Barrett's campaign announced Friday he raised $750,000 in a little more than three weeks after getting into the race March 30. Falk's campaign said she raised $1 million between mid-January and April 23.
